Everyday Dorie: Sour Cherry (not Mixed Berry) Pie

This one was supposed to be a Mixed Berry Pie, but truth is, I make like one pie a summer, and this summer it was gonna be sour cherry. I followed Dorie’s recipe for the crust and her technique of turning a portion of the filling into a jam to hold everything together. And then, of course, I used my new fave pie technique from Baking with Dorie–brushing glaze on the top crust once baked, because I wanted the vibe of those Hostess pies I was never allowed to have as a kid. I know that any pie that bubbles juices up like that is going to be good, and this one certainly was.

For the recipe, see Everyday Dorie by Dorie Greenspan, and head over to Cook the Book Fridays to see all of our pies this week.

YEP – this needed a glaze on top (why wasn’t it included and why didn’t I think of this?). Gorgeous!

Looks like a beautiful substitution. If you are going to make one pie Cherry is a great choice.
